Drawing on data and analysis from the time, this address provides insight into the economic and social effects of free trade in England during the late 19th century. With cogent arguments and persuasive language, the authors make a compelling case for the benefits of free trade, and shed light on the political and social debates of the time.
Beatrice Potter Webb Poradie kníh
Táto vplyvná sociologička a ekonómka sa hlboko zaoberala históriou práce a sociálnou reformou. Jej práca sa vyznačovala precíznym výskumom a odhodlaním dosiahnuť spoločenské zmeny. Zaviedla kľúčový pojem „kolektívne vyjednávanie“ a spoluzaložila prestížne inštitúcie, ktoré formovali sociálne a ekonomické myslenie. Jej odkaz spočíva v trvalom dopade na modernú sociálnu politiku a robotnícke hnutie.

She suggests that the rise of the working class and the emergence of socialist movements will lead to the downfall of capitalism and the creation of a more just society.
